Everything was nice in my opinion. However the Breakfast and Dinner could be cheaper, or the portions larger. Expecting 5 Euros for a tiny bowl of couscous was wild tbh. But thats the only problem I had with the hostel.
Everyone was kind, the room was clean, the bed was comfortable enough. And the most important part - A/C worked in the room.
Thanks for the nice experience

The staff are very helpful in pointing you to local attractions. The continental breakfast is reasonable for 2 EUR and coffee is complimentary. The screens on the beds aren't perfect, but they work as well as can be expected. It was busy, but quiet at night while I was here. Overall, a good stay.

You are on your own here.
Have stayed here over the years without any problems, but this time around not so good. Clothes and shoes stolen by another traveler who left early in the morning without checking out. Although they knew who it was they didn’t want to get involved themselves but suggested I deal with it myself with the tourist police. So I’m guessing that their good name as a hostel means nothing to them. P.s. while I was out buying replacements. The hostel cleaners helped themselves to my food and drinks(3) they left(2). When your guests are robbed in your premises it’s your business.

Sono stata 4 notti in questo hostello, condividevo la camera da 4.. il letto non comodissimo ma ognuno aveva i suoi spazi. Bagno in comune con differenti docce.. mi sono trovata bene!! L'area comune aveva divani dove rilassarti e la cucina era attrezzata di tutto.. alle 20 tutte le sere c'era la sangria gratis e alle 21 la cena, al costo di 5€ che cambiava ogni sera! All ultimo piano c'era questo bar con vista e musica.. hai una carta. Elettronica x uscire ed entrare, ed è situato proprio davanti il mercato centrale!

De las 3 personas que me atendieron en el área de reserva, sólo un chico, el más joven, fue súper amable. Los demás pésimo trato. No sé si volverían alojarme!

Per poche notti...
Concordo con molte altre recensioni che è fattibile x poche notti.... Stanza solo donne troppo piccola per 6 persone... Sotto i letti a castello i cassonetti x valigia un po' vecchiotti e molto scomodi... Ma la pecca più grande (a mio parere) la non possibilità di gestire in autonomia l'aria condizionata!!!!! Bisogna sempre chiedere in reception di accendere o spegnere.. Alzare o abbassare... X il resto camera al primo piano x cui un po' di rumore dalla strada si sente
Nel complesso ribadisco x qualche notte è ok guardando il prezzo davvero accessibile

Ganska central. Bra hostel som jag kan rekommendera till någon. Den enda felet var på duschen med temperaturer av vatten annars funkar bra.
